USADA announced on Thursday that Mir has been suspended two years for testing positive for dehydrochloromethyltestosterone (DHCMT) in an in-competition sample on the day of his bout against Mark Hunt at UFC Night 85. Mir lost the bout via knockout 3:01 into the opening round of the heavyweight bout.
“Mir, 38, tested positive for a long-term metabolite of dehydrochloromethyltestosterone (DHCMT), following an in-competition test conducted on March 20, 2016, at UFC Fight Night 85 in Brisbane, Australia.
